I wonder if the pizza is better in Italy...Anyone been there and had pizza?

[SkinBasket]

Some people call them Wops. I don't understand what makes that offensive and I refuse to google it in case my computer is Italian.

Who cares about Italians? They don't even control the Vatican anymore. Bunch of greasy-haired losers.

Speaking of the Vatican, why were they called 'Swiss Guards'?

Italians make some fantastic pizza...Napoli is the home of the pizza if I remember correctly. The classic margerita...tomato, basil and cheese..yum.

I love Italy and Italians...I could give a shit how many times their government has collapsed.

Without papers. Wop.

Kinda wussy for an insult...

The Swiss were famous for being mercenaries. Apparently they were also farmed out to the Vatican.

Mercenaries? I thought they were always 'neutral'...............hmmmmm., interesting.

My Mom has been to Italy a few times and said the best pizza is in NY. Which is, of course where pizza was born. BTW, she is 100% Italian.

the pizza I had in Italy was TERRIBLE. It was a long time ago, but I don't even think it had tomato sauce on it. IT was just weird, hard to identify as pizza. I have a hunch that pizza came from Sicily, or some isolated corner of the whop world, and was developed and popularized in New York. Maybe Wikipedia knows ....

It was invented in Naples. And I remember now - the pizza in Italy didn't have CHEEZE on it. No kidding.

Pizza cries for dogs that love Jesus.

Cheese and pizza are bound to fold during the course of world domination.

It takes sauerbraten mit rotkohl.

Apparently there's an area of Switzerland that is mostly Italian:

Switzerland the country has its long history of neutrality dating back to 16th century, but their soldiers regularly signed on with the highest bidder. Maybe neutrality had a hand in making their soldiers more available to fight other people's wars? Swiss soldiers have a reputation for professionalism and discipline, whereas a lot of other European countries have historically had trouble fielding standing, professional armies when most of their soldiers were conscripts.

The Swiss Guard at the Vatican is one thing, but I've never heard of Swiss soldiers fighting as mercenaries in war. The charge of the
Swiss Light Brigade? Take that hill, Swissies!? Perhaps you are right, I'd be interested in a specific example (bet it was from a long time ago.)


Edit: our friend wikipedia says they were doing their mercenary thing back in the late middle ages: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_mercenaries

I love dark haired Italian Women. Nothing sexier, maybe a hot Brazilian chick. I do like latinas in Cowboy hats as well.

[Deputy Nutz]

I forgot to mentioned hot Russian women on meth. I like them too.

I was in Brazil once. The boat runner's daughter was hot but ugly. We made out when she was in her swimsuit and she pressed her boobies against me. I didn't even get crabs, just a couple letters in Portuguese that I couldn't read.

Come to think of it, she offered to take me for a walk in Manaus after dark, at least I think that's what she was yippering about in her crazy tongue. I was young, but even then I had the feeling she was setting me up to be dragged into a back alley and murdered, so I declined. She probably just wanted to bone. Oh well, my bad.

[packinpatland]
